TEEING OFF
The Indian Hills Women's Golf squad is set to open up its second year of competition after a breakout first year for the Warriors.
- Head coach Michael Shedd will lead six returners and one freshman in his second season at the helm of the program.
- The Warriors placed 14th overall at last year's National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) DI Women's Golf National Championship during their debut season.
- Sophomore Joska Nelis returns to the course for the Warriors after a stellar freshman campaign that resulted in three first-place finishes.
- The Warriors return sophomores Poppy Norcott, Taylor Pacheco, Mackenzie Reeves, Veronica Rodriguez, and Sofia Saavedra, each who participated in last year's national tournament.
- Freshman Julia Petrilli rounds out this year's roster as the lone newcomer.
SHEDD'S NOTES
"I'm very excited about this year," stated head coach Michael Shedd. "This team is ready to go. We have six returners that have matured so much from last year, and a freshman that will help us tremendously. We have a tougher schedule with a lot of new events all over the South and Midwest regions, which includes new NCAA Division I events. I know the team is excited about them, and I believe it will help us have another break-out year."
